Geese-Swans
This is a game for as many people as you want. One person is chosen to be a Wolf and another, an "Old lady", all the rest are "geese". The wolf stands on one side of the field an old lady stands aside. Then the lady says: "Geese, geese!", "Ges, Ges, Ges" (answer the geese). "Do you want to eat?" "Yes, Yes, Yes!" "Then fly!" "No, we can't. The gray wolf under the hill doesn't let us through the field." "Then fly like the wind but take care of your wings!"
And with these words all the geese start running. The wolf tries to catch at least one goose. If he catches a goose this goose becomes a wolf and the game starts again. Or you may play till all the geese are caught and then the first who was caught becomes a wolf and you may also change the Old lady. Have fun! (Nikita Kuznetsov)
 
Brook
Everyone can take part in this game. The players make pairs and rank. Then they take their hands and put it up. So they make a brook. A child, who didn't find a pair for him, stays in front of the brook.
He closes his eyes, goes through the brook to choose a pair for him. This pair goes to the end of the brook. The player without a pair goes to the chiefs' place. (Nazarova Ksenia)
 
Ring 
3 or more children can play in this game and you need a ring, a button or something small, what can be held at the composed plums. All players sit in a row, the chief stays in front of them with a ring in his hands. Players sit with not locked plums. Chief comes to each player and pretends that he puts a ring into his hand (the chief can put a ring into the players' hand or not). When the chief passes the entire row he says: "Ring, ring go out to the porch!"  Player, who has this ring, should run out from the players' row, because other players, without a ring must keep him. If he runs out, he becomes a chief. The first chief sits into the players' row. (Kolganova Polina
 
Who is Stronger? 
Many children can play this game. There must be two teams. The children in each team stand behind each other holding each other's body, making a column. The teams are facing each other and divided by a line drawn on the ground.
According to a signal the first members of both teams start holding each other by their hands and all the team start pulling. The team, which is stronger, manages to pull the members of the other team to their side of the line. Those who crossed the line become members of the other team and they stand behind and help this other team to pull more and more children from their own team.
The winner is the team, which manage to get more " prisoners". Then you may start the game again. (Nastya, Dasha , Ann, Helen, Nastya, Ksyusha, Nikita, Nail, Anton)
 
Traffic Light 
Draw a line on the ground. All the participants stand behind it. Draw another line 5 meters from the first. The leader names a colour. And if a child has this colour of his clothes he may reach the other line with no problem but those who don't have this colour must try to run to the other line without being caught by the leader. The one who is caught becomes a leader and the game goes on. (Nikita, Nastya, Anton, Nail, Ksenia, Dasha, Anna)
